Well nobody gets to the lore part when they can't get past the difficulty spikes in the games XD But yes, the lore is soooo good. I'm always drawn into it when playing
Cause we didn't care. I've skipped every single line of text without reading as much as the first word. I also play without music so I don't know how amazing it is. I also didn't care about how good it looks cause when u're in a juiced map surrounded by enemies and everything burns and exploded it will look like shit anyway. 😂
Great breakdown of the early parts of the lore of PoE 2! A small tidbit, that I don't think you mentioned: In the Manor Ramparts, on the way to Ogham Manor and the Count, the player encounters The Gallows. Those are the gallows from the character select screen, where the classes you don't choose get hanged.
I replay these videos from time to time when I am in respective acts. I stay for the lore while I play and grind. Perfect combo, and your voice is mellow enough to focus both on game a voiceover lore. 😀 awesome, thanks
Thank you for helping make more content on the cool lore of poe. which is usually overlooked. my first playthrough i read just about everything and its super awesome.
THIS IS AWESOME! after playing POE2 as my first POE game, this is so extremely nice and this breakdown helped me understand what and when. And you do an exceptional job!
So good! More!!! I tried to follow the story but being new to POE, it felt like I was missing context of the world. This is a great way to get that missing context. Thanks!
A small detail that you didn't mention is that Geonor's biggest secret that pushes him to doubt himself is that there are one or more Eternals in his bloodline, so he is not a pure Ezomite. Very nice video nonetheless. Thanks!
@@ZillahEnoch main reason he went crazy is he needed to pee but his mansion was so god damn big he could not find a toilet so he turned into a wolf to be able to pee at a tree but the shit map was too big so he just lost it
A good overview of act 1. its getting interesting for sure though with only a part available it gonna be interesting what the final 3 acts will bring to the table.
It's really cool that they start us off with the Ezomytes. We almost never see much from them in PoE 1. Talisman league was my very first full league so it feels like its come full circle.
I'm new to POE and I try to listen to characters and read the lores in the game as I play. But it feels better to watch a video as it feels complete and streamlined. And honestly i tend to forget the minor details as i progress. So it's nice to listen and learn everything in one sitting. Thanks and kudos for making this.
Never played this style of video games until POE2 caught my attention. The lore is INCREDIBLE, thank you for sharing, def gave better perspective & now I have way more interest on continuing the rest!
This is a fantastic video. I've clocked 150 hours on Poe2 having so much fun, and now you've made it even more fun for me by helping me to understand the story better and how it all ties together. Im keen to watch the Act 2 one next. When are you making an Act 3 one? P.s. some of the cinematic footage you used was epic 👏🏻
Great video, it complements GGGs excellent level-design and enemies. In general, the game's atmosphere is so dreary and dark, I'm in love with it. The details around the mobs becoming more and more afflicted by the Seed as you come closer to it is really cool! I'll be waiting for the rest of these videos.
Definitely they are keeping a huge suspense with the upcoming 3 acts. The story is about 40% revealed, and what may come next will definitely surprise us. They didn't create this cinematic trailer just to keep it up with the current trend, they did on purpose so they can tell the story properly, and I have the feeling it won't be the only cinematic trailer PoE 2 will have.
Thank you for the content you create. I started watching your channel becuase of Diablo 4 story . Diablo 4 is my first ever RPG GAME. But you made it understandable for me. I understood the story so thank you.
I was getting a little lost with the story on my first play through until I remembered that you have to go back and constantly talk to the NPCs to get updates on lore and the story.
I feel the fear wasn't inadecuacy but that people learn that the Count clan was afflicted by lycanthropy in order to survive the winter after the rebellion. There are notes that states "people knew" about a secret, more than thougt about his qualifications. It also explain the amount of werewolves in Act1
Also there is a link between Geonor and the frost witch named Beira of the Rotten pack in Clearfell. Geonor has a line "of Beira's misery...the won't forget" And Beira drops Head of the winter wolf on death aswell as she summons undead wolfs Geonor wolf form also named Putrid wolf. So he knows her(?) and they both share themes of rot, frost and wolfs.
I understood it as werewolves being part of the clan because they are blessed by The Old Ones. The secret he's talking about is that he has Eternal blood in his ancestry making him impure and paranoid about stuff. I've looked at every lore bit in every act just to see what stuff might mean.
@@Midaspl But only after he gives in to the corruption. When he transforms into a wolf in the 1st stage of the fight he's a proper wolf without corruption and two mouths
@@KerzahdGaming Agreed, I think turning into a wolf is considered reasonably normal by Ezomyte standards. Rigwald, the Wolven King was doing that in PoE1. The Druid class is probably going to be a shapeshifting Ezomyte too.
It was explained to me that these people are the vile types of criminals that can’t be forgiven. Could be wrong though, bc they hint at these people simply being enemies of maraketh
much better at doing lore videos than playing the game 😉. when you're playing it's like you're scared to take time to think about stuff and just close your eyes and click stuff to keep moving on and hope for the best. that lore video though was something else. 10/10
Great video! Since I stumbled into the desolate battleground & graveyard of the Titans in PoE2 (Act II, Valley of the Titans) I'm intrigged to find some lore of them and why they fell. But I could not find any clues yet. 😔
Him being adopted makes so much more sense I was wondering why my character called him father when they looked nothing alike Renly also doesn’t say your skilled with the violence to the the warrior thought that was a neat little difference between my witch and my main character
Great video! Almost makes me want to play POE2 again. I won't, though, because of all the issues and the constant crashing for textures not being found. I'm enjoying replaying poe1 instead while they sort out 2.
everyone always asks how difficult is path of exile, nobody talks about how cool the lore is 😞
Well nobody gets to the lore part when they can't get past the difficulty spikes in the games XD
But yes, the lore is soooo good. I'm always drawn into it when playing
The lore from poe 1 transitioning to poe 2 is so good
Cause we didn't care. I've skipped every single line of text without reading as much as the first word. I also play without music so I don't know how amazing it is. I also didn't care about how good it looks cause when u're in a juiced map surrounded by enemies and everything burns and exploded it will look like shit anyway. 😂
We will see books soon.
KittenCatNoodle talks about how cool the lore is. She has well over 10 hours worth of videos covering lore in PoE1
Thank you for not spoiling things just to show off how much you know about the lore. Definitely be watching all of these
Babe, wake up we got Nyx doing the Path of Exile 2 Lore video!
Great breakdown of the early parts of the lore of PoE 2! A small tidbit, that I don't think you mentioned: In the Manor Ramparts, on the way to Ogham Manor and the Count, the player encounters The Gallows.

That one seems fairly obvious but also not critical to the story and he did say he was going to focus on the critical details
Thanks for mentioning me!
Always glad to help you out with stuff :)
Oh I love this! Please keep doing it after the remaining acts have been released and also the endgame story!❤
I replay these videos from time to time when I am in respective acts. I stay for the lore while I play and grind. Perfect combo, and your voice is mellow enough to focus both on game a voiceover lore. 😀 awesome, thanks
Glad you like them!
Geonor's fight is really so cool, him monologuing while you try to fight off the wolves and him inevitably jumping onto you multiple times.
Thank you for making a video of the lore. I’m new to the series and idk what’s going on. All I know is that I’m having fun
As long as you are having fun it's all good!
I like that you are not in a hurry while telling the story, it can be easily followed. Also, knowing the lore enhances the experience so much \o/

This was excellent. Can’t wait for the next acts.
Man the lore of Path of Exile’s universe is so interesting, thanks for the vid and can’t wait for part 2!
Can't wait for Acts 2 and 3! Great video!
Working on it!
Nice one...! Looking forward to the next acts!
Doing the gods work there Nyx. Much love!
Nice summary! Thanks and looking forward to the next ones.
Great job mate! Now I NEED the second and 3rd part of this series. PLS!
Splendid presentation. More of these. Maybe even a deeper dive into history, the purity rebelion all that fun stuff.
I've been looking for a video like this! Thank you
A good overview of act 1. its getting interesting for sure though with only a part available it gonna be interesting what the final 3 acts will bring to the table.
Really like how you tell the story, keep up the great job and looking for more in the future.
Im so excited to see a video for act 3 in the past!
Awesome Video! Thanks ❤ Can't wait for the other acts
Thanks for making the lore of poe 2. Have been searching for it for quite a while.
Lovely. Thank you so much. Merry Christmas.
thanks this was very well edited and narrated
Thank you!

P.s. some of the cinematic footage you used was epic 👏🏻
Thankyou for this video!
loved it. great video! can't wait for more
Well done with the story telling, great video
reminds me of when I read the Path of Exile comic books and geeked out on lore
What!!?? Where can I find these?, seriously dude.
Wanted to go over the lore again real quick for myself. But I'll wait for your videos on the 2nd and 3rd act now ;D
Great summary, keep it up!
Truly amazing ❤ I loved every Min of this
Thank you!
@@NyxVellum your welcome!
Thank you for this nice summary!
Glad it was helpful!

Apparently the Kingsmarshers are REALLY interested in Vaal stuff
Couldn't end badly that one, surely
I did well in skipping dialogues in PoE2 waiting for you to cover it instead! Great vid as usual!
Nice video, like it so much!
That was amazing!
Good video, can't wait for act 2
Just what I was looking for!
Great Video 👍
Great video thank you
Very pumped for ACT 2 to drop. I steamrolled through this and have no idea what’s going on. After watching this , now I’m invested.
Thank you for the content you create. I started watching your channel becuase of Diablo 4 story . Diablo 4 is my first ever RPG GAME. But you made it understandable for me. I understood the story so thank you.
Thank you for an entertaining and helpful story 😮
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! please make for act 2 and 3, and also about the endgame could be nice :)
That's the plan!
Bro this was awesome I need more!!!
We love this pls release part 2
Working on it. It's HUGE
Nice. More lore!
I was getting a little lost with the story on my first play through until I remembered that you have to go back and constantly talk to the NPCs to get updates on lore and the story.
You have an amazing voice for lore videos.
Love your Diablo and PoE lore videos!
Thank you!
I’ve been trying to find videos on “The Ardura Caravan” would be nice to hear more about that
Goes up tomorrow

Yeah, but his wolf is corrupted with two mouths and beast's tendrils.

I enjoyed your video very much, hope you can do live of playing the game too and have some playing video games
CANT WAIT FOR ACT 2
Going to need a full video about Act II guys pulling the caravan.
It was explained to me that these people are the vile types of criminals that can’t be forgiven. Could be wrong though, bc they hint at these people simply being enemies of maraketh
Ready for part 2 for act 2 !!
Live tomorrow!
Can't wait for Act 2.
Glad you're covering the lore of POE2
Thank you!
Well guys, I think we are in a BIG LEAGUE when Nyx is making a lore video.
...I thought the lore was "Crit damage is a multiplier, not an additive". How have I been so wrong for so long.
I haven't even watched the video yet and i want MORE!
Can't wait for act 2 :-)
working on it
First lore video on RUclips! Yay
Love act 1 lores, really have that darkest dungeon vibes
damn, can't wait for act 2 story 🍻
Another banger.
Merrrrrry Christmas lore fans

Need this for act 2!!
Great video! I don't have a lot of time after work, so i tend to skip most of the voicelines from all the npcs and only focus on the gameplay.
That sword Geo carries needs to be a unique drop! I WANT IT
Very nice.
Good video! Please more (:
Great video! Since I stumbled into the desolate battleground & graveyard of the Titans in PoE2 (Act II, Valley of the Titans) I'm intrigged to find some lore of them and why they fell. But I could not find any clues yet. 😔
Im eagerly awaiting part 2
Him being adopted makes so much more sense I was wondering why my character called him father when they looked nothing alike Renly also doesn’t say your skilled with the violence to the the warrior thought that was a neat little difference between my witch and my main character
Great little details, right?
Please stick with giving us more lore throughout the rest of the ACTS in POE2! Your our Hero
Maybe GGG needs to add a mini cinematic for each character that you choose at the beginning. Like how they got captured and almost hanged.
Please make more Path of Exile contents.
We want more sir. 😂
Thanks for the video
Great video! Almost makes me want to play POE2 again. I won't, though, because of all the issues and the constant crashing for textures not being found. I'm enjoying replaying poe1 instead while they sort out 2.
Getting d4 ads on these poe2 vids, makes me giggle every time 😂
I wonder if later acts will revisit locations from PoE 1, like Sarn.
what is this? vaativellum 😂 .. I LOVE IT
Finally!!! Thank you, give me give me
Nice! I told myself I'd read all the boxes but my Poe 1 brain got the better of me and I skip everything. So thanks for filling in the blanks.
